Swings on the Shore


ROPESWING

At our wooded beach on our property we had two swings. One was located at the Pointe, some forty yards east of our main camp site. The other was behind the tents about twenty yards toward the swamp. Both were used often on two or three trips.

Our two tents were erected within ten yards of the lake itself and between our two fire pits. Just behind the tents were our clothe lines for anything wet. Then a few yards away from that was our “wooded” tire swing which drew a lot of attention in the evening hours.

Between the shoreline Pointe rope swing and the main campsite was our latrine area. The Pointe rope swing was largely used in the daytime. We tried to utilize as much space on that small piece of land that was surrounded by either the lake or the swamp.

There really wasn’t a general play area for sports but that was not the reason we were there. The kids played around in the lake or took the row boat out for a brief twilight trip to the Pointe.
